Subject: (urth) TBotNS - Pinakotheken

Book I, chapter v "and the pinakotheken, with their great hallway topped
with a vaulted roof of window-pirced brick."

After much digging it would seem that pinakothek=picture gallery in
German, but wouldn't the suffix denote the plural?  or perhaps 'gallery'
as in chamber, and thus many chambers off a single great hallway?
